Answer:

so basically u can just pick and choose what info u want to use:

During the Progressive Era between 1896–1916, social activism and political reform became widely renowned and certain laws were set in place to keep large businesses in check, such as the Pendleton Act. This act made it unlawful to fire or demote an employee based on political stance. This makes me think about a more recent act that was passed called The Americans with Disabilities Act. which not only provides equal treatment to disabled persons in day-to-day life but is also, similar to the Pendleton Act. as it protects persons with diabilities from being fired or demoted without reasonable cause.

wait nvm thats not really on topic....

During my lifetime the government has more or less decreased the regulations set in place to keep large businesses in check. When looking at certain acts like the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act, which was updated in 2017, makes it so that all workers in the US are paid minimum wage up to the national minimum wage, along with other benefits. However, debates on whether minimum wage is truly a livable wage have been brought up. This then allows many large businesses to exploit and go around this law, allowing them to grow bigger and bigger. um... i dont know if this is any good nvm
